It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think it's better to burn out than to fade away... it's better to live out your days being very, very active - even if it destroys you - than to quietly... disappear.
I'm not going to just fade out, I know.
Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all.
It's better to burn brightly for half as long than to be a dim lingering light.
That's the thing: You don't understand burnout unless you've been burned out. And it's something you can't even explain. It's just doing something you have absolutely no passion for.
I faded away for a while out of necessity.
I had no idea there were so many ways you could burn yourself out.
I just love what I do. I'm not worried about any burnout.
People think retiring is fun. Well, maybe, but if you have a certain kind of fire inside, there is no end in sight.
If you do things when you're burned out, it'll make you bitter.
